Here’s a small story that happened to me recently. Now that the weather is no longer cold, I prefer to drive with my window down versus using the AC and every day coming home from work it would feel at least 5 degrees cooler after I drove over the freeway getting home. At first, I stopped thinking about it by the time I got home and got out of my car. But it kept happening consistently. So, I started getting curious and decided to do some research. My plan was to find detailed weather maps of my area. Cross reference those with topological maps. Maybe there was some kind of natural barrier like a ridge or hill that caused this. Maybe I could check NOAA, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and google earth. Then one day I remembered that physics exists and the speed limit changes from 35 to 55 miles per hour at that overpass. Yep the correct answer was wind chill. While this story is a little embarrassing, and kind of silly, it should hopefully remind that sometimes the solution to a problem is a lot simpler than you make it out to be.

Brothers even though the Lodge is dark during July and August it doesn’t mean there is nothing to do. We still have plenty of events for fellowship. Most notably the Independence Day Parade. Now With More Float!!! AAF262 St. Mary’s #4 and Zal Gaz #34 will once again be marching and riding together in unity for our community. Brothers may wear aprons or Fezzes but not both. The whole Masonic Family is encouraged to join us. Nice shorts, polos, and bowling style shirts should be appropriate for the weather. We will have flags and toothbrushes to pass out to the kids.
